Prats of The Week - Sutton Council

Ooh my Golly Gosh!

It has been a wee while since I have awarded my prestigious, and internationally renowned, "Prats of The Week" Award.

This week I have absolutely no hesitation whatsoever in awarding it to the Prats on Sutton Council.

For why?

For their knobheaded decision to ban a poster advertising "Anybody for Murder?", a comedy performed by Croydon based Exit Theatre amateur dramatics group.

The dickheads in Sutton Council deemed that the poster might "offend" residents, as it showed actress Red Cook in a swimming costume coming out of the water.

Evidently the councillors of Sutton don't get out that much. As an ex resident of Croydon I would note that the ladies who go out and about partying there at night wear a lot less, and show a lot more, than Red Cook.

Were Nanny to try to ban everything that might be deemed to be "offensive" there would be no TV/radio, no printed media, no internet and no religion (banning the latter may well be a good idea come to think of it:)).

Sutton Council, well deserving Prats of The Week!

Drop them a line via this link (btw it took quite a lot of finding, evidently Sutton don't like people writing to them) Sutton.

Anybody for Murder? is at the Charles Cryer Studio Theatre, Carshalton from February 17 to 20. Call the box office on 020 8770 6990.

"Were Nanny to try to ban everything that might be deemed to be "offensive" there would be no TV/radio, no printed media, no internet and no religion (banning the latter may well be a good idea come to think of it:))."

Isn't that Nanny's ultimate goal?....No media unless approved by the state...Pravda......No religion except the worship of the state....No internet as it allows people to freely discuss things and form their own opinions based on research...China?Only approved state publications...Multi language of course....This IS the goal of all Stalinist police states.....Socialism can only be achieved by authoritianism.

I grew up in Sutton. It was a nice place until they turned it into a Croydon clone. But JC you must have it wrong, councils and logic - in the same sentence. Surely they will just disappear where Chaucer's Summoner put the nest of Friars?

"In Germany they came first for the Communists,and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.Then they came for the Jews,and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.Then they came for the trade unionists,and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.The they came for the Catholics,and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant.Then they came for me,and by that time no one was left to speak up."

"The best way to take control over a people and control them utterly is to take a little of their freedom at a time, to erode rights by a thousand tiny and almost imperceptible

reductions. In this way the people will not see those rights and freedoms being removed until past the point at which these changes cannot be reversed."
